Just wanted to post a few new pics of the game room. I think it's coming along well. Not going to post all my pics on this blog, but am providing a link for the curious: http://s1029.photobucket....necrom99/Game%20Room%202/
You've come a long way baby.....
Entrance:
Long view, with back wall and controller peg board (no Crabby, I haven't painted it black yet.....):
Console shelf, well it was wire-free for presentation, but I decided to hook up 10 systems to my TV and make it more function (hence wires). The Coleco is hooked up to the small Space Saver TV on the shelf. I have 14 systems in my house ready to go at any given moment. You will notice that since last time I added an upper shelf to give myself more room as I was running out of space.
no lie....
Work station table where I clean games and play 2600 and Vectrex. That orange thingy is a pretty cool 8-track player I found at a thrift shop. Maybe a few of you actually know what that is:
Drawers for handheld systems and games. These are opaque, but with the flash you can see through them a bit:
Probably my coolest local find:
Classics:
Some of my 2600 collection:
My favorite collection VECTREX!!!!
Fami collection. Yes, I do labels on the ends of the carts....what of it?
Other random room stuff:
And last but not least. The best apology letter I have ever received from a seller in Japan. I ended up getting two games for free from this standup gent. It also came with some cantalope Halloween candy which of course I saved. Whaaaaaaa???
In anticipation of a new addition to our family, I've been working non-stop to get my new house in order. Among these projects is my upstairs game room, which I've posted a few pictures of when I first moved in. Well, after a lot of hard work, I've gotten most of my collection organized, except for determining what to do with displaying all of my controllers and housing my hookups so that I can locate them easily. Please feel free to comment on the pics and as always, any advice is greatly appreciated.
